Short mittens in brilliantly soft alpaca wool keep your hands warm and ready for whatever the chilly weather has in store -- all while keeping your fingers free for the important stuff...like building a snowman or packing the perfect snowball.

I had a pair of the multi-colored ones for about five years that I wore almost every day each winter (putting black fingered gloves underneath for the coldest part of the winter). Last week, I caught the edge of one of the thumbs on something and it started to unravel. Apart from that, those 5 year old ones still look fantastic -- the color and shape really held up well even with the wear I put on them. When I came to the site to reorder more, I decided to order the purple-only ones. They just arrived today and, assuming that these hold up as well as my old ones did, I will like these even better, since they cover more of my hand than the multi-colored ones did (they stopped at the base of my fingers. These come to my knuckles).
You won't regret buying these. I promise.

i got the purple for myself & love them. i got the brown for my sister - but she loved my purple ones so i did an exchange. that exchange took only 2 weeks. but these were worth the wait! they are warmer than any other fingerless mitts or gloves i have ever had. & beautiful, as well.

Given as a gift, so I'm afraid I can't speak about their fit or warmth, but they were very CUTE!!! And alpaca is so yummy and luxurious, for such a great price!

Ordered both the brown and the green for my two grandsons, ages 18 and 22. They loved them. Exactly as pictured.
